NEW YORK FASHION LETTER
1
BY ESTELLE CLAIREMONT
i
NEW YORK, AuAg. 20. The powers
that Invent ami mold the fashions hate
«vldenlly, not quite definitely derided
what novelties and changes they will
•detree for the coming fall and winter
seasons. It is true, some slight
changes hate been made, indicating i !
marked, though not radical departure
from the styles of spring and summer, j
tout these changes are, as yet, only
tentative and do not clearly and deli-'
tritely point-in a certain direction.
According to icports from I'arls the i
characteristic bell shape of the pres
ent day skirts will he greatly empha
sized or exaggerated in the fall and
winter styles. The Question whether
they will be full or tight around the
hips is not yet decided, butt here Is
no doubt that the H iring effect of the
hem will lie accentuated by using some
methods of increasing the Hare. In
«orne models stiff linings in the hem
are used to support the outward flare
of the lower part of the skirt, while
In other models the desired effect was
produced by silk covered cable cords,
running nlong the lower edge. If neith
er of these methods Is employed, the
•desired result will be obtained by vol
uminous ruchings and ruffles along the
lower part of the underskirts.
The new corset which has been In
troduced in Paris and Is Unding great
favor, will soon make Its way across
•he ocean. It promises to cause a
anafked change in the feminine form.
The new corset supports the bust
without raising It above Its normal po
sition and Is said to give more freedom
and a more natural and artistic figure
than the high-bust corset. Another
peculiarity of the new corset is that It
•sharply defines the waist line, without
preventing the straight line effect In
front.
Another novelty which may he ex
pected for the coming fall Is really not
« novelty but a revival In modernised
form. It Is the redingote of long ago
brought up to date by various modern
ising touches and improvements. The
mew redingote will be either single or
double breasted or open In front, with
a waistcoat to close the gap. The
-basque part of the garment Is volumin
ous to accommodate the full skirt and
the neck Is collarless, with bands, turn
overs and lapels. The redingote is
«Ither cut without a break In the waist
line or it has a separate bodice, joined
to the basque at the waist with a seam.
The revival of the redingote will un
doubtedly give a powerful impetus to
tbe popularity of the wulRtcoat, which
promises to he much In evidence dur
it»« the coming fall. It will be worn
tat s great variety of forms. It may be
dut high or low, may form a separate
garment or merely simulate one. It
may be of the same material and of the
•une color, or may be used to enhance
the general effect by Introducing a
touch of bright or contrasting color.
There Is practically no limitation of Its
decorative possibilities.
The thin silks and other sheer fab
flics Which are so extensively used this
summer are undoubtedly beautiful and
taeasonsble, but they have one great
di s a dvant age. Thay are so light and
Wlkate, that the slightest breese Is
sufficient to disturb them and only a
woman who has been out walking or
.Tiding In such a gossamer dress or
those, who amusedly watched her
frantic efforts of preserving the dec*
■ency of her appearance In spite of a
-m o s t aggravating and shameless breese
wail fully appreciate what the disad
vantage referred to really means.
Sterne women were so exasperated
«ver the antics of their skirts that they
gave up the fight In despair and took
to leas volatile fabrics. Now, that Is
really too bad, as these delicate ma
terials are exceedingly beautiful and
•effective. However, there Is no cause
■to despair. There is a very simple rem
edy and Ingenuous dressmakers are
making those skirts of sheer materials
With wide and flannel-lined hems and
with a number of small lead sinkers
fastened to the Inside of the lining.
Those In close touch with the most
prominent fashion establishments of
farts predict that dolmans will be worn
* great deal during the coming fall

j
i
ami winter. A writer in Crerand's i
Journal gives the following description I
of some models of dolmans exhibited in j
one of lb ■ barling Paris establishments'
"One of the models is of that brilliant }
brown cloth so fashionable just now, i
and is made entirely in one piece with j
enormous sleeves taken in the fullness |
of the big, circular garment. There is i
a big capuchine turning into a stole
arrangement of passementerie. An-J
otlc-r model, retains tHe dolman shape,
but with seams down the shoulders,
has an enormous collar, making a deep |
point In the back of squares of guipure!
dyed the same shade as the cloth !
mounted in brown velvet and edged j
with sable. The dolman sleev es have |
extensions of straight, wide cuffs to
match this. The garment may be '
worn with the fronts turned over to,
show revers faced with brown velvet. I
Still another is of glossy hlaek cloth. I
It is of paletot shape with big puffed j
sleeves over which fall half a dozen I
little circular cape pieces. The straight :
fronts are faced with deerskin dyed tv 1
rich black, and thrown back, display !
a fitted double breasted waistcoat of
the same glossy fur, trimmed with a
border of green velvet touched with
gold braid."
It seems that the popularity of the
bolero Is by no means on the wane and
that It will be very much In evidence
all through the coming fall and winter.
The bolero has many valuable, and at
tractive points. It Is undoubtedly very
chic and pretty, adds a saucy touifn to
the most demure dress and more than
anything else enhances the most at
tractive features of a good figure.
But, it has another advantage, which
will, undoubtedly add to its popularity.
It inay save money under certain con
ditions. It does not cost much to make
a bolero which is handsome and at
tractive and it costs a great deal less
to cover up defects In a waist or bodice
with a handsome bolero than discard
the waist or replace it \\;lth a new one.
Some writer on fashions has recently
culled attention to the fact that Ameri
can manufacturers are themselves re
sponsible for the fact that so many
American women purchase not only
their clothes in Europe, but even the
materials of which they are made. It
is a well known fact that American
cotton goods excell in quality and
beauty those of any other country. Yet,
whenever some particularly fine or
handsome materlul is produced by
American mills, It Is put in the market
as imported from France or England.
It Is rather peculiar, that English mer
chants, to create a demand for their
goods, represent them as manufactured
in America, while the French, who im
port moat of their cotton goods from
America and England, never admit that
the goods are Imported.
A new style of sleeve, called the Jack
Horner sleeve, has made Its appearance
In London and will undoubtedly And
many admirers on this side of the
ocean. It Is low upon the shoulder and
tight in the upper arm and gradually
grows wider until at the wrist It has
the circumference of a good slxed pil
low case. At the wrist It is finished
with two full and deep ruffles of lace.
It will be worn a great deul on fall
coats and its effect Is quite attractive.
Although a return to the close fitting
coats of the directoire style Is predicted
for the coming fall, the picturesque
long and loose coats which were worn
this summer and have met with so
much favor here, will undoubtedly be
retained, especially for evening wear.
Although the weather in New York
has been unusually rainy this summer
and the humidity of the atmosphere
abnormally great, feathers are used
very much for decorating hats. Large
and gracefully curved plumes, some
times three plumes arranged In Prince
of Wales style, and various other styles
are used extensively. Undoubtedly the
most beautiful and graceful style is
that of using but a single long plume,
curving around the top of the hat and
the end falling over the brim. There
Is every reason to believe that feath
ers will be the most popular style of
hat decoration this fall.
